Our first visit will be at the oldest church of the island Panagia Episkopi built during the rule of the Byzantine Emperor Alexios Komninos during the 11th century A.D. Next we visit Mesa Gonia- the “ghost” village, there you will be offered tomato balls and a glass of wine and then drive to the village of Pyrgos. A traditional village with Cycladic architecture, Byzantine churches and a Venetian castle. On our way to Oia, we stop at the idyllic village Imerovigli to enjoy the most wonderful view of the caldera. There we also find Skaros, a grand rock, the remnant of the most important castle. Our last stop is the breathtaking Oia village. Oia is famous for being the place of gathering artists, who are inspired by the beauty of the landscape and the magnificent purple sunsets.
